For Netscape, select the Options Menu under Language Encoding the choices for Japanese are: Japanese (auto-detect) Japanese (shiftJIS) Japanese (EUC) Japanese (UTC-8) If you select “Japanese (auto-detect)”, Netscape will, in most cases, automatically detect which encoding the message uses and translate accordingly. Outgoing messages (i.e., those you post) will be be EUC (ISO-2022-JP) encoded and work fine with the Japan_Link list. This assumes your have Japanese font support already working on your system.
